A disappearance woven through a close-knit town

In Grants Pass, Lara McAllister’s disappearance has left a community divided between the possibility that she left on her own and fears that something happened to her. Rookie homicide detective Maeve Kalani takes on the case while settling into a new town. The investigation brings her into contact with people linked to Lara, amid weak alibis, concealed motives, and reluctance to revisit the past. The police-procedural premise puts the town’s web of connections at the heart of the mystery: as Maeve tries to establish what happened, suspicion spreads across the same community where everyone seems to know one another.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers who enjoy police-procedural mysteries centered on an investigation.
  • Readers interested in missing-person cases and a small-town web of suspects.

Book overview

"Twisted officials, perversions, and a trail of impossibly connected and unsolvable crimes." -Scott Eveloff, Author of Do Not Resuscitate

Lara McAllister was adored by everyone in the small town of Grants Pass until one rainy day last year when she vanished without a trace. Some believe she simply ran away. Others believe something sinister happened. In a close-knit community where everyone knows everyone's business, is it possible that nobody saw anything?

Rookie Homicide Detective Maeve Kalani moves to Grants Pass in the hopes of starting fresh and is assigned to the case. As Maeve begins to untangle the mystery behind Lara's disappearance, paranoia and mistrust sets in as she realizes that everyone has some sort of connection to the missing woman. Weak alibis and hidden motives are everywhere, and it seems no one is willing to dig up the past. But when everyone is a suspect, who can she trust?
